DE FERRAN MOTORSPORTS CONTINUES PREPARATION FOR PETIT LE MANS

INDIANAPOLIS, IN (24 September, 2008) -- De Ferran Motorsports has
been preparing over the past few weeks for its longest and biggest race
of the season, Petit Le Mans, which takes place October 4.

Even if the beginning of on-track activities for the cornerstone event of
the American Le Mans Series is still one week away, the team is already
heading to Braselton, GA to take part in a two-day test session at the
Road Atlanta track, this weekend, ahead of next week's race for
some final preparations.

Regular drivers of the #66 Panasonic-sponsored Acura ARX-01b, Gil de
Ferran and Simon Pagenaud, will be joined by 2008 Indy 500 and IndyCar
Series Champion Scott Dixon for the running of the 10-hour race as well
as for this weekend's test at the 2.54-mile, 12-turn road course.

The three de Ferran Motorsports drivers will have plenty of track time to
get accustomed to the Road Atlanta layout with seven hours of testing on
Saturday, September 27 (9:00 am to noon and 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm) as well
as another seven hours on Sunday (8:00 am to 10:00 am and noon to 5:00
pm).

Petit Le Mans, round 11 of the 2008 American Le Mans Series, gets
underway Saturday, October 4 at 11:15 am with live television coverage on
SPEEDTV starting at 11:00 am.
